detroit red Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 I'm sorry, but at the risk of sounding elitist... making artwork with roaches is kitsch enough to start with. Copying pictures of Bob Marley and Snoop dog is as well. But making pictures of snoop dog and bob marley out of roaches... reaches the level of embarrassing self-parody. i see where you are coming from with this point of view..and agree to an extent.. ..however...sometimes ...i dont think art should always be taken so serious. is dude the next artist so ahead of the game that he is gonna start a new movement or period in art. no. as a composition...i think i looks pretty dope.

viperface Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 I can respect the craft aspect of those pictures. I hope the dude does something else among that though. My favorite contemporary art has often resemblance to practical humor. like this http://www.gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooogle.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poesia [ ] T Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 I get disappointed with Art more and More every day and this thread just reminded me of that fact.

Most of them are around 18x24 and up. I own an impression of the second to last one I posted and it looks to be around that size. Oh and bump those Turners.
